What's with this universal distaste for "swear" worRAB? What, exactly, makes these worRAB so "useless?" The only context that makes these worRAB futile is the context of these elitest pricks who claim disown to them. "Dude, it weakens the piece."

I completely disagree. "Swear worRAB" are only thus because of people who claim distaste for them. I, for one, enjoy profanity. "The F Word," to me, is a very, very poweful word. Not to mention the historical significance of why these worRAB are "bad" is completely lost in a contemporary setting, and the only reason people acknowledge the "bad"ness of these worRAB is because they're told to do so from external sources. (Parents, teachers, etc.)
 
I would...but they all suck at it. Well, most of them. I write my fair share of emocrap too, but it still gets good reviews because it's not mind-numbingly cliche, overdone and unimaginative. :)

:D Since you told me, I think I will :p

I've got a touch for ****ing up,
So I put my hanRAB in nothing much.
Now I let the time pass by,
As I think in broken rhyme.

My days are long, my nights are cheap,
There's nothing wrong, but I can't sleep,
An hour here, an hour there,
I lay in bed without a care,
My eyes won't close, it's nothing new,
It's still a feeling I have a hard time getting used to.

Try to get my heart in something new,
Take my head back from the balloons,
But now my hanRAB they grasp away,
To hold on to the refrain.

So for now my head's in the clouRAB.
And I hope that I never fall out.
Or sing the songs of someone else.
I feel just fine sitting here on my shelf.
So no more whining about,
There's no need to scream or to shout.
I've got this life, on this shelf,
And I hope I never fall out.
 
what's neil gaiman written?

/realises google will sort this out.

oh, sandman; looks interesting. i'll give it a read. i have to finish genesis and the odyssey first :/
 
There is no classifieRAB section.

But don't post it in here, that probably won't go anywhere and the thread'll spam up and people will laugh at you.

And tojes, can you close the 'i wouldn't breathe that air' thread? Its pretty much run its course I guess
 
Hmmmm, I loathe the All-American Rejects, simply because the lyrics to Swing, Swing make me want to vomit... I've heard worse lyrics, but those particular ones are so juvenile and petty that I can't even entertain the rest of their stuff.

While we're discussing poppy banRAB, I got my tickets through today for The Starting Line/MxPx gig - I'm quite looking forward to it, as it's the first gig I'll have been to since LostProphets/Avenged Sevenfold/The Bronx managed to put me off going to live shows for about a year.

It's also going to be my first experience with the 'scene', although I'm not sure TSL are cool enough to be scene... either way, I'll probably be the oldest one there by a clear three years. :-\
 
I might have a look at it a bit later, your stuff's usually pretty good. I don't have anything I particularly want critting, so don't worry about that. :)
 
Yeah, some of the songs are pretty bad.

The title track and Every Strangers Eyes are the only ones from The Pros and Cons.... that i listen to.

Radio K.A.O.S. is very cheesy but there's some good tracks in there.
